Beyond Roads: The Future is Electric

The dream of futurists has always been a flying vehicle capable of efficiently moving passengers from A to B.  Opener is realizing this dream in the world’s first ultralight all-electric fixed-wing vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicle: BlackFly. BlackFly is a story of technical evolution and vision. Our vehicles are intended to liberate us from the restrictions of two-dimensional road travel by opening up a new world of unfeathered three-dimensional flight. People will go places they never thought possible.


Opener is an aviation company based in Palo Alto, CA. Our team shares a vision of a revolutionary form of personal transportation. We build pioneering technology in electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft.  We’re growing fast and invite you to join our amazing team.
